Indonesian Clerics Issue Anti-Gay Fatwa; Anti-Civil Union Peruvian Lawmaker Cites Hitler; Is Christianity more ‘un-African’ than Homosexuality?; Global LGBT Recap

By Peter Montgomery

…ort published by Heinrich Böll Stiftung, The Green Political Foundation in Germany, Eric Gitari of the National Gay and Lesbian Human Rights Commission reviews LGBT-related legal, political, and cultural developments in Africa in 2014, both pro- and anti-equality, including many stories we have covered here.

The Shared Assumption Behind Creationism and Anti-GMO in Europe

By Michael Schulson

…’s very small and marginal. But you don’t have to have a lot of people. In Germany, there are not so many creationists, but they’re widely influential, they’re quite active. They are quite capable of making themselves heard. In the book, one contributor talks about the German state of Hesse, where a minister seemed to defend the teaching of creationism in a pair of state-funded schools. There was also an incident in the Netherlands in 2005. The mi…

Perry To Accuse Obama of Appeasement

By Sarah Posner

…1938, Czechoslovakia’s Sudetenland was turned into crocodile food for Nazi Germany. The Nazi beast smelled the weakness in the appeasers, ate the food and marched and devoured most of Europe and systematically slaughtered 6,000,000 Jewish people. Hagee used essentially the same rhetoric in a speech at David Horowitz’s Restoration Weekend last year. Because Perry is speaking in New York, and with Jewish leaders, the assumption is he’s angling for t…

White Nationalist Ideology Shines Through at Elite MAGA Conference: Inside NatCon Part II

By Ben Lorber

…2020, he tells me, and being at NatCon makes him feel like he’s in Weimar Germany in the late 1920s. I can relate. When I tell him I went to undergrad at Bard College, a liberal arts school, he laughs and reminds me that I, too, am part of an elite. “Perhaps,” I acknowledge, “but even so, I can’t afford to stay here.” Later that night, I hear storm clouds roaring outside the window of my more modest Airbnb and I worry, not for the first time, abo…

America, Religious Values, and the Death Penalty; Or, If it Was Good Enough for Jesus and Socrates…

By Louis A. Ruprecht

…just the past few months, we have witnessed fifteen persons gunned down in Germany and eleven more than that in the state of Alabama. In the face of such enormity, words break and grief can overwhelm. An impulse for vengeance, like blind rage itself, is all-too-human and all-too-understandable. Yet these are poor places from which to engage in serious deliberation over matters of great moral complexity. Recall that the death penalty was originally…

Ideology is More Than Skin Deep: Why I Can’t Get Along To Go Along

By Daniel Schultz

…nts in order to “end the culture war” is bound to be about as effective as Germany or Japan putting forth a new peace treaty to settle World War II. The battle is done, and the country has moved on. I am very sorry to hear that Mr. Jones thinks my position on such matters is counterproductive. But it is not mine to offer reconciliation or bridge-building to social conservatives on behalf of women seeking reproductive rights or the GLBT community….

Islamophobia v. Islamo-comedy

By Hafsa Kanjwal

…are that radical Islam has waged war on Western culture. They compare Nazi Germany to Islamism, which is primarily depicted by Iranian and Lebanese militia raising their arms in a traditional military salute—similar to that of the Nazis. The commentators mention that Arab dictators are at fault, as they seek to distract their populations from their own inadequacies by blaming the West for all their problems. I agree with them on this issue. But wh…

Decadence, Sickness, and Death: Mourning and the Israel-Hamas War

By Shaul Magid

…ocities was both shocking and totally predictable. It was also wrong. Nazi Germany was a country with an army, a police, and an economy. Hamas is a violent terrorist organization born in occupation with no formal military and relatively few resources. Israel is a first-world country with a high-powered military and nuclear weapons. Even if they were brutally victimized, Israelis in Tel Aviv are not the Jews in the Warsaw Ghetto and they’re not liv…

Why Did an Antisemitic Christian Zionist Have the Chutzpah to Declare That He’d Be Leading a Holocaust March?

By Ben Lorber and Aidan Orly

…verse victim-blaming inverts the historical reality that, in fact, fascist Germany violently denied its Jews first their national identity, then their lives—but this didn’t stop far-right Israeli outlets like Israel Hayom from celebrating Evans’ bid to lead the event commemorating these Jewish victims of German fascism, over seven decades later. Before he embraced Christian Zionism in the 1980s, Mike Evans led missionaries to convert Jews to Chris…

Global LGBT Recap: Ugandan Law Unleashes Vigilantes, Anti-Gay Americans Want to Boost Homophobia Exports

By Peter Montgomery

…okha, the reverend who works with churches and mosques throughout Kenya to promote acceptance of gays. He said he and fellow activists spend most of their time convincing families of LGBT individuals that “Having an LGBT child is not a curse from God.” Makokha said Muslims “are a bit radical when it comes to the dialog on sexuality and faith. The Koran says (homosexuals) should be stoned to death.” But unlike in Nigeria, Kenyan Muslims do not act…
